Without this, the input handling code won't understand the key/mouse
event was consumed (i.e. triggered a shortcut), and will continue
processing normally (e.g. sending event to the client application).
Before this patch, foot used xrgb surfaces for all fully opaque
surfaces, and only used argb surfaces for the main window when the
user enabled translucency.
However, several compositors have damage-like issues when we switch
between opaque and non-opaque surfaces (for example, when switching
color theme, or when toggling fullscreen).
Since the performance benefit of using non-alpha aware surfaces are
likely minor (if there's any measurable performance difference at
all!), lets workaround these compositor issues by always using argb
surfaces.
Otherwise, a sequence like
\E[4:2;4m # Enable double-underline, then immediately switch to single
Will switch to the slow printer, and then get stuck there even though
we immediately switch to plain underlines (which don't need the slow
printer).
The main reason for having two color sections is to be able to switch
between dark and light. Thus, it's better if the section names reflect
this, rather than the more generic 'colors' and 'colors2' (which was
the dark one and which was the light one, now again?)
When the second color section was added, we kept the original name,
colors, to make sure we didn't break existing configurations, and
third-party themes.
However, in the long run, it's probably better to be specific in the
section naming, to avoid confusion.
So, add 'colors-dark', and 'colors-light'. Keep 'colors' and 'colors2'
as aliases for now, but mark them as deprecated. They WILL be removed
in a future release.
Also rename the option values for initial-color-theme, from 1/2, to
dark/light. Keep the old ones for now, marked as deprecated.
Update all bundled themes to use the new names. In the light-only
themes (i.e. themes that define a single, light, theme), use
colors-light, and set initial-color-theme=light.
Possible improvements: disable color switching if only one color
section has been explicitly configured (todo: figure out how to handle
the default color theme values...)
299186a654 introduced a regression,
where we don't handle SHM buffer "hiccups" correctly.
If foot, for some reason is forced to render a frame "too soon", we
might end up having multiple buffers "in flight" (i.e. committed to
the compositor). This could happen if the compositor pushes multiple
configure events rapidly, for example. Or anything else that forces
foot to render something "immediately", without waiting for a frame
callback.
The compositor typically releases both buffers at the same time (or
close to it), so the _next_ time we want to render a frame, we
have *two* buffers to pick between. The problem here is that after
299186a654, foot no longer purges the
additional buffer(s), but keeps all of them around. This messes up
foot's age tracking, and the _next_ time we're forced to pull two
buffers (without the compositor releasing the first one in between),
we try to apply damage tracking that is no longer valid. This results
in visual glitches. This never self-repairs, and we're stuck with
visual glitches until the window is resized, and we're forced to
allocate completely new buffers.
It is unclear why 299186a654 stopped
removing the buffers. It was likely done early in the development, and
is no longer needed. So far, I haven't noticed any bugs by
re-introducing the buffer purging, but further testing is needed.
When reporting the column/row pixel value in mouse SGR mode, we
emitted negative values when the cursor was being dragged outside the
window.
Unfortunately, negative values aren't allowed in CSI parameters, as
'-' is an intermediate value.
It was done this way, to be consistent with XTerm behavior. Allegedly,
XTerm has changed its behavior in patch 404.
With that in mind, and seeing that foot has never emitted negative
values in any other mouse mode, let's stop emitting negative values in
SGR mode too.
Closes#2226
If the viewport has been scrolled up, it is possible for a
reverse-scroll (rin) to cause the viewport to point to lines outside
the scrollback. This is an issue if the scrollback isn't full, since
in that case, the viewport will contain NULL lines. This will
potentially trigger assertions in a couple of different places.
Example backtrace:
#2 0x555555cd230c in bug ../../debug.c:44
#3 0x555555ad485e in grid_row_in_view ../../grid.h:83
#4 0x555555b15a89 in grid_render ../../render.c:3465

#6 0x555555a74980 in fdm_poll ../../fdm.c:435
#7 0x555555ac2b85 in main ../../main.c:676
Detect when this happens, and force-move the viewport to ensure it is
valid.

Add support for the new xdg-toplevel-tag-v1 Wayland protocol, by
exposing a new config option, `toplevel-tag`, and a corresponding
command option, `--toplevel-tag` (in both `foot` and `footclient`).
This can help the compositor with session management, or custom window
rules.
Closes#2212
By default, triple-click tries to select quoted strings within a
logical line. This also works if the line spans multiple screen lines.
If there is a quote character in the last column:
printf %"$COLUMNS"s \'; printf wrapped; sleep inf
and I triple-click on the following soft-wrapped line, there's an
assertion failure because the column next to the quote is out of range.
The quote position has been found by walking at least one cell
backwards from "pos". This means that if the quote position is in
the very last column, there must be a row below.
Also move the assertion to be a pre-condition, though that's debatable.
This is needed, since we disable alpha in fullscreen, and since we use
different image buffer formats (XRGB vs. ARGB) when we have alpha
vs. when we don't (and fullscreen always disables alpha).
Normally, this happens anyway, as the window is resized when going in
or out from fullscreen. But, it's technically possible for a
compositor to change an application's fullscreen state without
resizing the window.
This fixes an off by one, where we sometimes "ate" an extra space when
extracting contents with tabs. This happened if the tab (and its
subsequent spaces) were followed by an additional space.
Closes#2194
Before this patch, we always blended towards black when dimming
text. However, with light color themes, it usually looks better if we
dim towards white instead.
This option allows you to choose which color to blend towards.
The default is 'black' in '[colors]', and 'white' in '[colors2]'.
Closes#2187
When exiting fullscreen mode, the window's transparency was not being
restored, leaving it opaque until another window was fullscreened.
This occurred because the Wayland opaque region was set based only on
the configured alpha value, without considering the fullscreen state.
Since commit
899b768b74 ("render: disable transparency when we're fullscreened")
transparency is disabled during fullscreen to avoid
compositor-mandated black backgrounds affecting the intended colors.
However, the opaque region was not being updated when the fullscreen
state changed.

Foot likes it when compositor releases buffer immediately, as that
means we only have to re-render the cells that have changed since the
last frame.
For various reasons, not all compositors do this. In this case, foot
is typically forced to switch between two buffers, i.e. double-buffer.
In this case, each frame starts with copying over the damage from the
previous frame, to the new frame. Then we start rendering the updated
cells.
Bringing over the previous frame's damage can be slow, if the changed
area was large (e.g. when scrolling one or a few lines, or on full
screen updates). It's also done single-threaded. Thus it not only
slows down frame rendering, but pauses everything else (i.e. input
processing). All in all, it reduces performance and increases input
latency.
But we don't have to wait until it's time to render a frame to copy
over the previous frame's damage. We can do that as soon as the
compositor has released the buffer (for the frame _before_ the
previous frame). And we can do this in a thread.
This frees up foot to continue processing input, and reduces frame
rendering time since we can now start rendering the modified cells
immediately, without first doing a large memcpy(3).
In worst case scenarios (or perhaps we should consider them best case
scenarios...), I've seen up to a 10x performance increase in frame
rendering times (this obviously does *not* include the time it takes
to copy over the previous frame's damage, since that doesn't affect
neither input processing nor frame rendering).
Implemented by adding a callback mechanism to the shm abstraction
layer. Use it for the grid buffers, and kick off a thread that copies
the previous frame's damage, and resets the buffers age to 0 (so that
foot understands it can start render to it immediately when it later
needs to render a frame).
Since we have certain way of knowing if a compositor releases buffers
immediately or not, use a bit of heuristics; if we see 10 consecutive
non-immediate releases (that is, we reset the counter as soon as we do
see an immediate release), this new "pre-apply damage" logic is
enabled. It can be force-disabled with tweak.pre-apply-damage=no.
We also need to take care to wait for the thread before resetting the
render's "last_buf" pointer (or we'll SEGFAULT in the thread...).
We must also ensure we wait for the thread to finish before we start
rendering a new frame. Under normal circumstances, the wait time is
always 0, the thread has almost always finished long before we need to
render the next frame. But it _can_ happen.
Closes#2188
This allows the user to configure the value by which a surface
buffer's stride must be an even multiple of.
This can be used to ensure the stride meets the GPU driver's
requirements for direct import.
Defaults to 256. Set to 0 to disable.
Closes#2182
When we print a character to the grid, we must also update its OSC-8
state if an OSC-8 URI is currently active.
For double-width characters, this was only being done for the first
cell.
This causes the labels in URL mode to be off, as the link was
effectively chopped up into multiple pieces.
Closes#2179
